As energy costs continue to skyrocket across the country, gas, electric and heating oil alike, you may be looking for ways to maximize the energy-efficiency of your home during your remodel or new construction project.
Look no further than the state-of-the-art, energy-efficient glass packages by Alside. Available on all of Alside's Vinyl Replacement, Specialty and Performance Series New Construction Windows, these glass package upgrades may pay for themselves in energy savings all year round, while improving the overall comfort of your home and perhaps even increasing the value of it.
In fact, they're so energy-efficient they qualify as ENERGY STAR-qualified products.
Alside offers many energy-efficient glass packages. All selections feature PPG's Solarban 60 Low-E glass and a "warm edge" spacer system. Additionally, all of them feature Argon gas between the panes of glass. Argon gas is a colorless, odorless, nonflammable, nontoxic and safe inert gas. Heavier than air, the Argon gas creates an additional layer of insulation that reduces the transmittance of heat and cold, but not light.

No matter how lovely your windows are, they are never fun to clean. SunClean Self-Cleaning Glass by PPG actually lets you spend less time cleaning your windows - while giving you a clearer view all the time.
SunClean self-cleaning technology features a durable, transparent coating that is bonded to the outer surface of the glass during the manufacturing process. The coating makes use of the sun's ultraviolet rays and water to slowly decompose and loosen organic dirt and then rinse it away.
When ordinary windows with traditional glass get wet, the water beads up, concentrating the dirt into spots or streaks.
SunClean uses the sun's UV rays to help break down and loosen dirt. It also causes water to spread out over the surface of the glass - not bead up. As the window begins to dry, sheeting action helps rinse dirt from the surface and speeds drying time. When it's completely dry, the window with SunClean will have very little spotting or streaking.
You want to enjoy your home and your leisure time. So consider choosing SunClean self-cleaning glass for a clearer view - and a lot less work.
